Subject: Simple problem w/ WWW::Mechanize

Hi all, I'm fairly new to Ruby, and, as an exercise, I'm writing some
code for webforms. However, I can't seem to get the following code to
work - instead, I get the following error:
wikitesting.rb:8:in `get': undefined method `myform' for
#<WWW::Mechanize::Page:0xb7996738> (NoMethodError)
        from wikitesting.rb:10

Probably pretty simple, and I can see it's something wrong with the
way I called the function, however, I've spent some time on it and
can't figure it out. Here's the code:
require 'rubygems'
require 'mechanize'
def get(pagename)
	agent = WWW::Mechanize.new
	agent.user_agent = 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT
5.1)'
	page = agent.get('http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=' +
pagename + '&action=edit')
	myform = page.form('editform')
	return page.myform.fields.form('wpTextbox1')
end
text = get('Computer')
pp text

Thanks,

Tim
